Daily Term: Content Delivery Network
Content Delivery Network
A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a geographically distributed network of servers that cache and deliver web content (e.g., images, videos) closer to users. For example, a user in Japan might access a website’s images from a nearby CDN server rather than the origin server in the US, reducing latency. CDNs improve performance and reduce bandwidth costs but require careful configuration for cache consistency and security.
